So 1 TD all season long? and this guy thinks they are dropping over 30 on us?

What? I never said 30 - no way. I said 34.

Yeah, but it's hard to put that one on Sneed. That was a perfect pass and catch on near perfect coverage.

I thought that was someone else covering him.

Thank you for correcting me.

A handful of posters: Yeah but you played a banged up Texans D that doesn't count our defense is so good you don't even know!

Like, what's happening here. If that's not moving goal posts I don't know what is.

Yes, KC is a good team. Are they as good as in the past couple years? Objectively no, we all agree. But 1) they have a much better defense, one of the best in the league and 2) they have one of the best QBs/TEs of all time who thrive in the playoffs.

We (ravens fans in this chat) are so quick to compliment what KC does well, but the moment we say Lamar did anything well it's "bUt his wOdERLic" or "yeah but that other #1 seed he beat he only beat because you got turnovers", or "well he's a QB I don't his multiple rushing TDs or 100 yards he racked up."

We're moving the goal posts on every single conversation about Lamar and it's baffling to me.


All that said....34-20 Ravens.

- You were replying to someone saying we should sell out and blitz to stop the run and make Lamar beat us with his arm. If we had Steven ****ing Nelson and Denzel Perryman we wouldn't be even suggesting that because we aren't 3 ****ing years old and brain dead. The Chiefs back 7 are as good as it gets this year. If we blitz and Lamar gets his, kudos, you deserve it, but to compare success against the Texans will be the same is crazy. As Chiefs fans, we understand the back 7 this week for the Ravens is also going to be a lot better than the Bills. We aren't in here saying we only had 3 real 3rd downs and punted once and we will do the same this week...

And on the Wonderlic, I could give a ****, I've meet Lamar in person and spent 15 minutes talking with him. He was a good dude and is a great player. Football smart isn't wonderlic smart... So I don't give a shit.

As far as pointing out that you beat the 49ers with an Iowa State QB, 7th round draft pick throwing 5 picks but still picking up 429 yards is legit since you keep pointing out you beat all these teams by 14 or more.

Oh, but we say things only because Lamar is black.... **** off.

So disappointed in the knowledge of Ravens fans. Especially that pathetic board that's watching this thread. Wow they are clueless

[Pasta Little Brioni]

You know what the Ravens are? Just another domino to fall in the legendary careers of Reid/Spags/Mahomes.

Only because ****ing Jim Nantz jinxed him right before the play

Smart kid.

Definitely saw a lot of issues with Lamar trying to process and holding the ball forever in the first half vs. Texans. As long as we hold contain on the edges, I think our outstanding secondary can force him to stay in the pocket where he isn't as dynamic.

Cover 0 with Sneed and McDuffie erasing 2 of your wideouts..fear it this week because you will have nightmares Sunday night after the game.

I don't think you know what 'moving the goalposts' means.

But if you think THIS defense is anything like The Texans defense from last week, you're in for a surprise.

You're not scoring 34 points. Just forget that.

You might score enough to win, but it won't be 34. Y'all have a good defense, too, and it's possible Mahomes comes up short, but it's not typical. It could happen.

But you're not scoring 34 points.

Here we go again! Just can't help yourself! We beat up on the #1 seed in the NFC but Lamar just wasn't good enough, was he?! This is a joke, right?

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Chiefs points don't count! Bills defense isn't good! Jerks his gerkin to scoring on a dog shit Texans defense

7 nation army rotted your pea brains

Nope - literally never said that. In fact, in that same post, I talked about how your defense was one of the best in the league - it really is. But just like you're confident in Mahomes (as you should be), we are also confident in our team. So, I think for the first time this year the VERY GOOD KC defense gives up more than 30, and I think it's 34. But if we win 9-7 I'll take that, too!

If he has a half, 1st or 2nd, like he had in the 1st half against Houston, Baltimore will lose.

They ain't gonna go into halftime tied with him playing like that. Granted, there was likely a little rust from not having played a meaningful game in 3 weeks, but the Ravens need to hope that's all it was.

He won't have the same margin for error against KC.
